The Body Book: 10 Tips to Eat Less Added Sugar
As a role model for millions of women around the world, Cameron Diaz wrote The Body Book: The Law of Hunger, The Science of Strength and Other Ways to Love Your Amazing Body to show women how to become the best they can be. A comprehensive overview of the human body and mind from the cellular up, The Body Book demystifies the hype around food groups, explains the value of minerals and vitamins, reveals why you should embrace hunger, shows why you need to sweat a little every day and much more. Diaz does not offer set goals to reach in a week, in thirty days or even a year. Instead, she offers a holistic, long-term approach to making better, consistent choices and living a stronger, happier and healthier life.
